Water pump, engine oil and filter (3 times) in 3 k miles , autobox oil (lost count on how many times) but 39 lt till clean!
Started to enjoy the driving, then this week 8 days after cam belt job no wipers at the front!! So read all post I can find, ( plugged my carsoft in ) and got bsi faults of internal light sensor,and wper lin!, so popped them out driver's side nicely sealed so tock a little time to access, but clean inside, magnet approx 3 mm back so moved forward, reassembled and tried, no help! Next passenger side , poorly sealed so came apart easy but full of corrosion ( PCB clean) cleaned up checked magnet good ! Tried both back in car still not working!, checked all fuses all good,

I will need your VIN and the fault codes from the diagnostic scan. Please post your VIN in full without spaces - it will be automatically masked from public view after submitting your post & will only be visible to staff.

Ok, so unfortunately those aren't any recognised fault codes, so can't help with those. Ideally you need Diagbox for this sort of level of diagnostics.

Here's the wiring diagram for your vehicle in case it helps.

With the exception of the wiring codes, most of the component codes are indexed here:
